- Make your edits (e.g., directly in the online editor or by copying the text to your favorite editor and back)

- Choose Create a new branch for this commit and start a pull request and give a proper name (e.g.,
charters-ig-scope-plugfest
) - Click Propose file change
- Skip the form, since you do not want to create a PR to your fork. Instead, go to https://github.com/w3c/wot, where GitHub will have found your new branch and will offer to open a pull-request (base fork:
w3c/wot
, base:master
... head fork:{your-account}/wot
, compare:{your-branch}
).
- Fork the
w3c/wot
repository into your own account - Create a branch in your fork for one particular topic (e.g., a single IG scope item) with a proper name (e.g.,
charter-ig-scope-plugfest
) - Make your edits and commit
- Push the new branch to your own repository fork
- GitHub will automatically offer to open a pull-request to
w3c/wot
(from your new branch to master)
- https://help.github.com/articles/using-pull-requests/ provides a tutorial on GitHub pull-requests.
- If you have not worked with GitHub in this way before, we will give direct assistance.
